19SixtyFive awarded in tender for heritage sites at Kampong Java

The tender will offer an upfront tenure of five years.

The National Arts Council (NAC) and the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) have awarded a price and quality (PQ) tender for restored heritage properties at Kampong Java Road to 19SixtyFive Pte Ltd.

Last July 2024, NAC and SLA jointly launched a PQ tender to seek proposals for arts use to transform Kampong Java into a space for artist-led innovation and creation.

19SixtyFive, whose winning proposal had the highest combined PQ score, seeks to create industry-led experimentation and connection space for artists, professionals, and the creative community.

The tender will offer an upfront tenure of five years, with an option to renew for a second term of four years dependent on 19SixtyFive Pte Ltd’s performance.

To ensure accessibility and affordability, 19SixtyFive will offer a comprehensive pricing strategy offering differentiated rates based on the duration of use for its various spaces.

The company also plans to organise an annual arts festival that brings together different art forms, regular live performances, art markets, and industry talks.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
